Napoleon's lost brooch sold for $4.4 million
On November 14, 2025, a diamond brooch lost by Napoleon Bonaparte while fleeing the battlefield of Waterloo was sold at Sotheby’s auction for $4.4 million. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The news was reported by the Associated Press. Initially, the brooch was estimated at $200,000, but the final price increased significantly.

This piece of jewelry was found in a carriage containing Napoleon’s personal belongings. It was later kept in the collection of the Hohenzollern royal family for over 200 years.

The brooch features a central diamond weighing over 13 carats, surrounded by smaller stones. During the auction, a large green beryl stone, rumored to have been worn by Napoleon at his coronation ceremony, was also sold.

These items attracted great interest due to their historical significance and uniqueness.
